This is the Pink Motel, a landmark along Tsali Boulevard (US Highway 441) on the Cherokee Reservation in North Carolina. Opened in 1953, the vintage motel was originally owned and operated by Lois Queen Farthing, who decided to theme the establishment around the color pink to differentiate it from other lodgings on the Qualla Boundary, which defines the interior decor, sheets, finishes, and exterior paint job on the building. The sign features the famous character Tinkerbell, whom was a favorite of Farthing’s daughter Lyna, giving the exterior a more whimsical appearance. The motel has changed little since it opened, and is a popular vintage mainstay along the main drag of the reservation, a relic of a fast-vanishing era, which sits at the southern gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

so i was thinking abt the old brokeback mountain forum threads i had stumbled upon last yr and i remember coming across a very lengthy one where people were debating the nature of ennis and jack's relationship during their days on brokeback mountain. specifically, people were debating about whether or not ennis and jack kissed at all during those first few months of friendship and fucking.
i know what y'all may be thinking: but nickie, didn't they literally kiss, like, super passionate style during the unfamous second-night-in-the-tent (or SNIT, as the BetterMost forum users dubbed it) scene?
but see, the thing is that in the original short story Annie Proulx never mentioned them kissing during their time on the mountain. In fact, the first (and only) time kissing is mentioned is during their reunion. In an interview, Ang Lee had said that the whole SNIT scene was written into the film to help audiences better understand the budding passion and love between Ennis and Jack. Otherwise, they felt viewers wouldn't quite get the depth of feelings that they had for each other, and thought they would've been lost as to why it hurt them both so bad to be separated earlier than they'd anticipated.
of course i love the idea that they eased into intimacy so early on in their relationship that they made out a ton while herding on the mountains, but imo, it's also kind of interesting to think about the reunion scene being their first kiss.
in her Story to Screenplay book essay, Annie Proulx said that ranchers would often hire two guys to tend a flock together so that they could 'poke each other' on the lonesome days in the mountains. In some ways, Ennis and Jack fucking was a normal and anticipated part of the job—a 'one-shot thing' that would occur simply due to circumstance. She said what was unusual about Ennis and Jack's case is that the two had fallen into a deep, once-in-a-lifetime kind of love during their time together, thus negating the whole 'one-shot' thing Ennis had declared it to be.
with that in mind, i can see why so many people believed that they never kissed during their initial months of relationship building. They both could have justified it by thinking that as long as they didn't kiss, their tryst didn't mean anything special, nor would it make them queer for going at it like rabbits. Then they both go through the turmoil of losing each other, not knowing why it was they felt so bad about going their separate ways, and go through four long years of silence before "the first sign of life" appears in the form of a postcard.
Jack pulls up in Ennis' driveway, and Ennis is so overcome with joy and desire that first thing his (alcohol-muddled) mind thinks to do is kiss the living daylights out of Jack, and in that moment—as those old forum users had put it—that was basically the first time either of them were able to acknowledge to themselves that the summer on the mountain in '63 meant a whole lot more to them than it should have.
i dunno. i think it's a really interesting subject to think about, one that gets broached in fics very rarely. would like to hear your all's thoughts, if any!
#brokeback mountain#still brokeback posting#also i KNOW this is my art acc but unfortunately my main is like hidden? so none of my posts will show up in tags :(#anyways regardless of if they did or didnt kiss beforehand im a big fan of the idea that after their big reunion kiss their intimacy#deepened considerably to the point where like. the motel scene wasnt just them fucking but it was their first time making love#like did they make out during the mountain months? maybe. but did they ever fuck facing each other? imo probably not. not until 1967#cause again its like the first time they realized just what they had meant to each other and how much they had missed each other#maybe they still couldnt register it as love because they didnt want to and couldnt take that big of a step as to name it. or maybe they#didnt think that they were capable of feeling love. or maybe they just didnt have the vocab to be able to define those feelings as love#in the first place.#but they at least knew that like. they were inexplicably drawn to each other in a way that they weren't to their wives

The Blake Mountain Motel of Thornton, New Hampshire is closed.
In 2016, Thornton police and New Hampshire state troopers executed a search warrant at the Blake Mountain Motel and seized a heroin, methamphetamine and money. Since then, the property has changed hands multiple times. Current owners are hoping to return it to a lodging property but until then, it sits overgrown and vacant.

I should start advertising my series to folks who love the Poconos and defunct hotel/motels. bc that's what this series is, at it's heart. a tribute to all those amazing hotels that have been lost to time. while also building a modern romance story on top of it.... one last hurrah for the old place, if you will.
